2024 Little Sugar MTB & Big Sugar Gravel

These course marshals must be 18+. 

AT LEAST ONE PERSON WITH A VEHICLE NEEDED TO GET TO MARSHAL POINT! 

Traffic Marshals are a pivotal element of the race, helping keep riders safe at intersections with busy roads. Your duty is NOT to stop traffic, but to keep an eye on approaching traffic and warn riders if they need to slow down or stop. Your presence in a safety vest will help warn oncoming drivers to pay attention. You will also be given a pair of "Race In Progress" signs to place 100 yards up the road to either side to warn drivers. Report to the Info Booth at the Expo on Friday from 10-7 or, if time allows, Saturday at the Finisher Item area to pick up your signs, vests, t-shirts, whistles (warning riders to slow down) and cowbells (cheering riders on!). Items can be returned to the Finisher Item area after your shift. Marshal Shift #3B is at the where riders traveling Mariano Road merge onto and then off of McNelly Rd. There are two parts to this point. The right hand merge onto McNelly is not too dangerous as riders have a good view of oncoming traffic from the left. HOWEVER, the straight ahead merge off of pavement onto gravel as McNelly curves right is SUPER dangerous because riders cannot see oncoming traffic from the right. This is a vitally important marshal point. Keep our rider safe out there! The first riders are expected at around 9:00am and the last around 10:00. Please have yourself and signs in place by 8:45 at the latest. There will be a Sweep Jeep following the final rider at a respectful distance. Please wait until the sweep comes through before packing up. Thank you! Marshal Point Coordinates: 36.457581, -94.158382
